The newly redesigned Facebook has led inviting members to an event/group/page to an even more complex process. Why can’t they just make a “select all” button? Initially I got tired of clicking several hundred times on all the pictures to invite people to my event, so I came up with this small piece of Javascript:
Go to your event/group/page, click invite people and then paste this snippet in the URL field of your browser.
Left-click the mouse in the URL field and hit Enter. Your invitations will not be sent yet, but all your friends will be selected. Click the “Invite” or “Send” button on the Facebook page to finally send the invites.
Soi! Done in one go 
add me

28 May, 2009 @ 28 May, 2009
This is trully marvellous and thank you vry much.
Do you think this principle can be applied to facebook groups of more than 5000 people?
I got such a group and there is no longer any way to invite the members of the group to an event i post.
I salute my Javascipt hero!
29 May, 2009 @ 29 May, 2009
Thanks for the feedback! I guess it should work the same way for large groups, although it will take some time with 100% CPU usage before the script is done running. Try it, wait for a while and tell me how it went
29 May, 2009 @ 29 May, 2009
You just saved me an hour. Thanks a million compadre.
I am saving that java for next time. Facebook can be so annoying.

This works a treat. Saves hours of clicking and has helped me to get so many more people to my gigs. Thanks mate!!!
17 June, 2009 @ 17 June, 2009
Actually it doesnt work. Although it does select all friends, when you hit ’send invites’ it will tell you they have been sent… if you then refresh the page to see how many ‘Awaiting reply’ people there are, the figure will not have increased from before.
19 June, 2009 @ 19 June, 2009
I Love You.

I totally agree. You are a god. I guess a Facebook god, but a god.
WHY ARE THEY SO STUPID TO NOT LET YOU DO THIS ANYWAY?
IN ADDITION, WHY CAN’T I INVITE FANS (MY FANS, PPL WHO SIGNED UP TO GET UPDATES!!) TO AN EVENT. RIGHT NOW, FB ONLY ALLOWS U TO INVITE FRIENDS. THEY ARE SO DUMB I COULD SCREAM.
5 August, 2009 @ 5 August, 2009
Holy God!!! You are my savior!!!!!!!!
You don’t know how long I have tried to figure that out!!!! wow
Thank you so much!!

It definitely seems like it works, because it selects all friends and says that invites have been sent, but when I ask me friends if they received the suggestion to join a fan page, they say no. So is it possible this only appears to be working, but the invites / suggestions are not actually being received?
2 September, 2009 @ 2 September, 2009
Can this be used to send out mail on facebook, to all friends that i put into a separate list?

FOR EVERYONE THAT THIS FAILS FOR…
you have to wait a bit for the action to go thru…it should work within a few hours, but i had an email i sent to a group before and it took 3 days! i imagine it all has to do with how taxed fbook is that moment.
for the record, i just invited 10,345 ppl to an event and this worked WONDERFULLY! the most on one account i added was just over 4900ppl.
Great Job!!
17 September, 2009 @ 17 September, 2009
But this is selecting already invited people!!
is that ok!
cuz it didnt work on my stuff
19 September, 2009 @ 19 September, 2009

19 September, 2009 @ 19 September, 2009
This stopped working?
25 September, 2009 @ 25 September, 2009
i can see how it worked before but now facebook only brings up one page of nine friends at a time so you have to select them all then go to the next page to select the next nine. Facebook just recently redesigned this feature. Is there a NEW way around this??
thanks
25 September, 2009 @ 25 September, 2009
THANK YOU!!!!
you saved me a million hours.
Also I agree with some of the other comments here. Please post here if you figure out a way to invite people on your FAN PAGE. right now you can only wait for someone to join ..there is no way to invite or add someone to your fan page.

5 October, 2009 @ 5 October, 2009
It doesnt work….It only invites the first 9 people. Go to page 2 and they arent selected. My advice is add all of your friends to a group and then when you need to invite people to an event. Click on that group. They will be all added. It takes quite a while intiially to add everyone but after that it works like a charm.
5 October, 2009 @ 5 October, 2009
It was working previously, not anymore. Must have been an update with facebook.

how do you get al of them to be high lighted to send?
6 December, 2009 @ 6 December, 2009
If you update that code to be a link with the text as the href parameter, then people can right-click and bookmark it … they then just need to click the link in their bookmarks to reuse it!
eg: right-click this link and save it to your bookmarks
7 December, 2009 @ 7 December, 2009
i had same problem, only selected everyone on the page, not all friends
7 December, 2009 @ 7 December, 2009
WOW dude…just one word..GENIUS! I reall appreciate your work, you rocks man! anyway..answering your question abour why dont they just simply add ’select all’ button, well i guess they afraid that this feature being missused, as in spamming people with rubish event.

I hope I’m wrong, but it seems FB has gotten wise to this little trick; it worked for me the last couple of times I wanted to invite all my friends, and now it doesn’t. It’s still possible to go to a “Friend List” you’ve created and “Select all,” but when you have over 1000 friends, that’s a pain.
27 December, 2009 @ 27 December, 2009
Thanks la, now it is easier than ever!
28 December, 2009 @ 28 December, 2009
You didn’t make this code specific enough, it does what is says though. It selects ALL friends, although certain friends can not get the message because they are already part of the group or whatever. It just says it couldn’t send to those people, but it would be cool if you could edit your code to make life a little easier.
28 December, 2009 @ 28 December, 2009
It works perfectly!!

29 December, 2009 @ 29 December, 2009
your a genius
29 December, 2009 @ 29 December, 2009
@anonynous # 193
A) I thought it was cool that it selected friends that where already part of the group
B) I didn’t get any error messages
C) If you want the code to do something different, change it yourself- that is the beauty of open source; you can change it to do whatever you want it to do. You could even post your new code back as a reply, so that other people could use it.
Also, on a side note, you can just put the code as a bookmark up in your toolbar (on firefox)

4 January, 2010 @ 4 January, 2010
Woah man – clever bit of code. PS Facebook always does take its time to deliver, that has probably been said allready, but I can not read all the praise. Thankyou

6 January, 2010 @ 6 January, 2010
I’ve tried using this code a bunch of times and it selects all my friends, but it doesn’t actually send the invites. Maybe this doesn’t work anymore on the new Facebook? Is there any code that might work any better? Please reply!
Thanks!

well, you couldv’e also just added your friends to a Group.
Then you get a “Select all” button
15 January, 2010 @ 15 January, 2010
a “List” I mean, not a Group….
15 January, 2010 @ 15 January, 2010
haahah works amazing bro ur de mannnnn
thnx alott
15 January, 2010 @ 15 January, 2010

15 January, 2010 @ 15 January, 2010
truly great bro….truly great
15 January, 2010 @ 15 January, 2010
When I follow these steps it only selects the 12 in the current view of the invite screen – how am I able to select all of my friends? Thanks!
16 January, 2010 @ 16 January, 2010
THANK YOU! awesome
16 January, 2010 @ 16 January, 2010
@Jenn: try to use another browser.
works like a charm! NICE
17 January, 2010 @ 17 January, 2010
Wow, this really worked because i have like 420 fb friends and selecting each one of them would have taken forever, thanks!

ohh,, but it still helps me invite ppl faster, so thx anyways:)
18 January, 2010 @ 18 January, 2010
It doesnt work, it only select 12 friends for me :S
18 January, 2010 @ 18 January, 2010
Great! I did not know it would work pasting JavaScript into the URL bar. Anyhow it is some kinda logical – on a HREF it is working, too…
Thanks for sharing the hint!
19 January, 2010 @ 19 January, 2010
jenn u have to use firefox
also admin facebook has upgraded their facebook too. so in the future it wont work. one of my profile freezes and i have to close the browser

it only works on Mozilla Firefox and Safari I believe from what I’ve seen… I tried it on internet explorer at my friends house and it didnt work… but on my pc with firefox and my friends mac with safari it worked wonderfully. People with IE can easily download firefox to get it to work
20 January, 2010 @ 20 January, 2010

i have been using this snippet since it was first introduced excellent work! But for a few days it hasnt been working, its been shutting me down (no response from firefox) is there an update?
22 January, 2010 @ 22 January, 2010
awesome
22 January, 2010 @ 22 January, 2010
You think you have something good & than they take it away from you! : / Ive used this javascript before many times, but now that they have changed the interface for event invites (again!), I can only use this code for the first page worth of people (barely 12). WE MUST ANTIQUATE!
23 January, 2010 @ 23 January, 2010
as above posted script is gona work after accepting all friend thats the reason behind your firefox crash
some lil edit make this script work without crash
ill show you
orginal script
javascript:elms=document.getElementById(‘friends’).getElementsByTagName(‘li’);for(var fid in elms){if(typeof elms[fid] === ‘object’){fs.click(elms[fid]);}}
edited script
javascript:elms=document.getElementById(‘friends’).getElementsByTagName(‘li’);for(var fid in elms){if(typeof elms[fid] === ‘object’){fs.click(elms[fid]);}};void(0)
void(0) stop function so your firefox not crash after adding all
25 January, 2010 @ 25 January, 2010
Here is shorter version i made
javascript:e=$(‘friends’).getElementsByTagName(‘li’);for(var i in e)fs.click(e[i]);
Works on Mozilla, Opera, Chrome.

hey facebook has change their script for java on the event page. after clicking on “invite people to come” i realized that instead of scrolling for friends facebook has change it to pages. so how do i select all friends on all pages? cos this script only invites all friends on one page.

28 January, 2010 @ 28 January, 2010
I mis spoke. It did not go to all of my invitees…..about 400! Only went to the first page of folks. Any ideas. It only takes about 5 minutes to click through all those people, but my hand gets all tingly!
28 January, 2010 @ 28 January, 2010
im confused…. when i invite friends and i paste the url snippet into my browser NOTHING gets selected?!? please help! im a club promoter and i do many events… this would greatly decrease the amount of time that it takes for me to set an fb event up! my email is jpsutandyo@gmail.com
28 January, 2010 @ 28 January, 2010
This is so ridiculously awesome! I actually already had this script that I got from a friend about 5 minutes ago, but then I searched for it and found this! For some reason I can’t believe that I never searched for this on Google before???? Anyway, thanks a stinkin million for sharing this…. This was a tremendous time saver!
Thanks a stinkin million!

31 January, 2010 @ 31 January, 2010
well, cool, but there’s not really a need for this, since as soon as you select a friend list in the invite-dialogue, there appears a “select all” button anyway which misses in the first place.
all you have to do is add every new friend to a friend list once.
i my case it makes more sense anyway, since inviting people to events like partrys or concerts i don’t want ans shouldn’t invite ALL of my freinds anyway, since a lot don’t come into question at all (like those live in other countries etc).

It seems the code isn’t working properly. When I hit enter firefox gets stuck.
Any idea why is that?
It worked just great till a few days ago.
Is there any other way to select all?
7 February, 2010 @ 7 February, 2010
Thank you so much!!!! Works great. Why you had to figure that out instead of making it an option is beyond me.
When will they come out with accepting MASS FRIEND REQUESTS?!?!
